Hill Country Strong: Reflections for Healing Through the Texas Flood
A story of loss, grace, and quiet resilience in the wake of disaster.
"Hill Country Strong is not just a rallying cry — it's a theology of healing."
When the Texas Hill Country was devastated by historic floods, it left more than broken homes—it exposed raw hearts and tested the fabric of community.
In this moving collection of essays and reflections, Elaine Murray invites you into a journey of loss, healing, and the quiet, determined strength that rises from shared suffering.
Key Themes:
Grief & healing
Spiritual reflection without religious pressure
Connection to place & community
Who Hill Country Strong is for & Why It Matters
I wanted to get Hill Country Strong out as quickly as possible for my community and for any one grappling with the realities of natural disaster—the questions, the grief, the strong desire for a meaningful reply to the question: Where is God when we suffer?
